Zhu Yan's expression was extremely grave as he looked up at the pitch-black night, roughly identified the direction, and promptly flew toward the west.
He flew north for about four or five kilometers and quickly found a squad of about fifty soldiers.
The fifty or so soldiers were fully armed, guarding the entrance of a cave. Upon seeing someone flying over from midair, they immediately became alert, but relaxed upon recognizing Zhu Yan.
A middle-aged man wearing Ten Thousand Forged Armor, clearly the leader, was the first to step forward and bowed to Zhu Yan, "He Qing pays respect to Lord General!"
Zhu Yan nodded and then glanced inside the cave entrance, speaking coldly, "I have urgent matters and need to return to the County City first. After delivering the people, you return here."
"Subordinate obeys the command!"
He Qing bowed and accepted the command, only to realize Zhu Yan had already disappeared.
